How to set up a parallel printer to a USB port?

Hi people... I'm putting in place our old faithful Laserjet 5 p with our new G70 using a USB to parallel cable, but nothing is. Any ideas on how to configure this odd couple so that they can live and work in harmony? My wife would ruin me rather than having to give up his printer.

Eureka! The TRENDnet TU-P1284 Converter is a plug and play printer inherited to new computer of mating. As a reminder, I have a laptop HP G70 running Vista Home Basic and a HP LaserJet 5 p printer and when I wired everything up, the computer recognizes the printer, install the correct driver, and I was off and running. The adapter is less than $20.00 per Amazon.

  • How do I copy movies from iTunes to a USB port so I can watch them on my TV

    Is there another way I can do this?

    You can not!  iTunes movies are DRM protected and can only be read

    through iTunes on a computer authorized Apple ID or an iDevice.

    This is somewhat true for any service of films and is part of licensing

    agreements with movie studios.

    I'm sorry.

    However, you can get some kind of cable adapter for your computer or your iDevice

    (depends on what you want to use and what your connection to) and connect it to the

    TV and reading through them.

  • How to assign a constant name 'letter' to the USB port?

    My Compaq Presario with Windows 7 has two USB ports on the front and on the back.  I use both to the front to connect a drive hard ext to the back, usb flash drives and a camera. Everytime Iplug in the disk hard ext, the PC assigns a letter to port such as J.  The next time I plug the camera into the same port, the PC gives it a different letter and I need to go back up and reconfigre Norton where to back up.  How to assign a constant name 'letter' to the USB port?

    I think that the previous answer may have been cut off, but they were right. You assign it a letter on the USB port, you assign a letter to the device. With your drive plugged, if you right-click on the computer icon and select manage you will arrive at the computer management screen. Click the disk management icon and you should see your drive listed. Right click on that and you should see a choice to change the drive letter and path. From there, click change and select a drive letter for your device.

    The Laserjet 4 do not have a USB port.  You use a USB / parallel?  These can be problematic.  The posts here have USB-parallel cable users reported work with Windows 7.

  • Can I connect printer to the usb port on the cable Modem CM100

    Hello

    This may seem like a stupid question, but here goes... I know that the usb port on my Linksys Cisco CM100 cable modem is an optional way to connect the modem to the computer. I wonder if I can use the usb port to connect my HP 1020 laser printer instead.

    The printer is not a network printer, and so I know that it may not work, but I have seen a few cases where a virtual port and install it as a local printer got to work.

    If I can connect the printer to the modem, and then he would give me a way to print from my laptop in the other room.  My printer is just beside my modem configuration and the router. I have a Linksys router WGR614 wireless who sees the devices on my network share, so I think he could see the printer connected to the modem (?)

    I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere. I didn't damage my equipment by blindly try this without knowing a little something. (I assume that the heart of my question is, on the CM100 usb port can be used for any usb device)?

    (I have Windows 7 64-bit operating system, in case you need to know).

    Thanks to anyone who can answer.

    A standard print server will allow you to connect a USB printer to your network. There are models wired and wireless depending on how you want to connect to the network.

  • My TimeCapsule airport can not find my printer via the USB port

    Hello.

    I have a HP Laserjet cp1215.

    I had to reset my TimeCapsule because my Xbox has an update and will not connect to internet.

    Then theres no reaction when I connect my printer to the TimeCapsule.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    When you reset the TC which settings you changed?

    Have a different IP address?

    Remove the printer to the computer and start the installation... If the TC changes IP it can mess up the connection.

    In the contrary case, we need a lot more info about what happened and your entire network. Printers can be extremely difficult to get running... the end plug it into a computer as it was designed to be... A USB printer is not network... and no USB print server cannot overcome the fundamental nature of the printer... It is designed for local use. Ultimately, that he will always give you problems.
